Ok so my buddy has a 92 lx and the coolent is just disappearing. I was thinking since the coolent is bubbling in the radiator when its running is a sign of a popped head gasket. I've checked the oil and it's fine. There is a very faint sign of smoke from the exhaust when its reved high. Other than that theres no smoke. If there is a leak I can't find it anywhere.
Besides that I'm stumped at the fact that I did a compression test on the motor and with the motor that has over 220,000 miles on it came up with the readings: 1-220, 2-190, 3-200, 4-185. In my repair manual it says the standard is supposed to be at 186psi.
Are the compression readings normal? Is the coolent bubbling a sign of a popped headgasket?
